Hymns - Higher Ground - Текст песни

I???m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I???m gaining every day;
Still praying as I???m onward bound,
???Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.???

Refrain

Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith, on Heaven???s table land,
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where those abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.

Refrain

I want to live above the world,
Though Satan???s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.

Refrain

I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I???ll pray till Heav???n I???ve found,
???Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.???

Refrain
